Re: Video Games Make Smart Minds
that was awesome. one too many images of puzzle pieces though your voice made my heart skip a beat :P really great presentation and solid use of examples. may be beneficial to take the decision making process learned from playing video games outside of the world of computers and how this developmental process could be… -

This is an interesting video and certainly a positive contribution to offering some counter argument to criticisms of video games in general.
